Dear Friend,

When classes resume in 2024, we will be entering a bleak time for the freedom to learn. Your donation can help us advocate for every student and every teacher by raising the alarm about vaguely worded and overly punitive measures moving through state legislatures. These measures are chilling speech, ending careers, and resulting in runaway censorship in schools around the country. 

Donate

Donate to PEN America to rally around educators and students and advocate to strike down censorship in classrooms. 

If teachers are afraid to discuss race or LGBTQ+ identities in the classroom, if they are afraid to answer student questions, and if quality educators leave the profession and cannot be replaced, then students are the ones who suffer most. 

If you've already donated, thank you so much for your support.
